Do not repair or replace any part of
the cooktop unless specifically
recommended in literature accompa-
nying this appliance. All service
should be referred to a qualified
technician.
Do not obstruct the flow of combus-
tion and ventilation air.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any
part of the cooktop.
Never use the cooktop to warm or
heat the room.

touch the grate, burner cap, burner
base or any parts in proximity to the
flame. These components may be
hot enough to cause burns.
If the cooktop is near a window, do
not use long curtains as a window
treatment, as they could blow over
the cooktop and create a fire hazard.
